Every human being holds some kind of fear deeply rooted inside their heart. This fear can be of anything that might be affecting your inner desires. This is a common human nature. We always feel uncomfortable when our mind tries to push ourselves to do something out of our comfort zone. And to come out of that comfort zone what you need to have is “COURAGE”. Our Kataldhar Rappelling activity opened up this opportunity for every individual to take that uncomfortable step , face the hidden fear and show the real courage. I could easily sense and read that fear from people’s face when they are hooked up to a rope and started descending from 450 ft waterfall cliff. There were multiple expressions on everyone’s face including joy, anxiety, curiosity and fear. At some point, fear was rising straight from the heart and challenging their inner desires however every participant showed great courage to win this mind game and finished waterfall rappelling successfully. 

 

        This activity truly helped all of us in many ways. Learning to trust your leaders, push your limits to the maximum extend are very important things.
